to a certain extent, machines can provide some excellent results. Make sure you hit all the muscle groups, your routines are quality with good form and the right number of reps to failure.

always keep in the back of your mind that as one ages, we become more injury prone. if something doesn't feel right. stop. don't adhere to the bs that one must work through the pain.

good luck!

x2, especially the reference to injuries. I would only add that one can continue to add muscle/strength if you adjust your training when needed combined with proper nutrition & rest...
